Worcy Crawford’s Buses Drove Civil Rights Movement

Alabama — Last summer, African-American man Worcy Crawford passed away at the age of 92. If you are unfamiliar with the name, you aren’t the only one.

With his passing, a civil rights story of epic proportions went untold.

When people think of buses and the civil rights era, they think of Rosa Parks. But many forget that there was a man who was busing around all the Blacks during the time of segregation. This man didn’t only bus Blacks, he owned the buses.
